@xlolex46 From now on they will count time relative to this event: BH and AH. When they grow old they will pass on this story to their grandkids. "The day a heron landed in the enclosure" it will go down as a mythical story for generations to come.

@TheRevolotion You won't find any enclosure that's really big enough for lions, they should be out. But this indeed is too small, it's in Artis, the Amsterdam Zoo. A relatively old one in comparison to f.e. the Rotterdam Zoo. There they show animals in a more "natural" environment. Oh...and they get enough food so don't have to prey for themselves!

@misterpoopy Yes they still have their hunting instinct intact but never a chance to use them. It has to be depressing for them plus the mother never gets a chance to educate the little ones for lack of prey; Here the adult gave up the prey to a young I believe it's part of the education process.
